During his visit, Prime Minister Modi held a meeting with President El-Sisi in Cairo and also had the opportunity to explore the historic Al-Hakim Mosque. The mosque, dating back to the 11th century, serves as a significant testament to the rich cultural heritage shared between India and Egypt, symbolizing the bond between the nations of the Ganges and the Nile.

Moreover, PM Modi paid homage to Indian soldiers who bravely sacrificed their lives during the First World War at the Heliopolis War Grave Cemetery. This gesture highlighted the mutual respect and appreciation between India and Egypt, as President El-Sisi had previously attended India's Republic Day celebrations as the Chief Guest in January.

In further strengthening the bilateral cooperation, Prime Minister Modi engaged in a productive roundtable meeting with his Egyptian counterpart, Mostafa Madbouly, in Cairo on Saturday. The meeting provided an opportunity for the leaders to discuss various aspects of the growing relationship between the two nations, encompassing trade, security, and cultural exchanges.
